I suppose the clinic wanted the money. Horrific.
I used to be friends with a woman who had a baby at just 25 weeks. It took some fairly heroic measures but her baby lived, with no major issues. Kid’s in college now.
If we want to show the world who we are, that is, Christians, we show the world that we welcome all babies, whoever they are. Would Jesus want any girl/woman to abort her baby? I don't THINK so. That baby has a God-given soul and who are we to end that innocent's life?
Muslims feel that way about babies. Abortion is EXTREMELY RARE, almost non-existant, in Muslim countries because babies are welcome. I only know that because I lived in the middle east for five years and saw it first-hand.
My Daughter’s twin son were born at 22 weeks....perfect and 22 weeks.............they lived only ten minutes and changed our lives - forever.......
This is horrific. Who can they pressure to have an abortion.

You would never think so, but Teen Mom on MTV is interesting. Every single one of them says “I could never have killed my baby” just like this 17 yr old girl did. It seems as though as long as they have enough real information (what the fetus is truly like at what week), their natural instincts kick in.
Last time I saw it, they had a girl who had her baby, and then they showed her sister going through major depression at the same time because she had had an abortion. The message I saw was “abortion is far worse.”
Overall, of course it condones teen pregnancy. But it does have a teeny tiny redeeming quality in that they show girl after girl who couldn’t kill her baby.
She may think she is pregnant but is not sure. She asks how much an abortion is. The clinic worker has been trained to nab this client, so instead of answering the question she asks one.
"When was your last period?"
And the young woman gives a date.
The clinic worker then calculates a due date and tells the caller what her due date is.
Her worst fear is confirmed.
This is done so that the young woman will not be tempted to call another clinic. The clinic worker was trained to not answer any questions, but to grab the woman's allegiance to their clinic.
All without even running a pregnancy test.
It is a real crime that not only do they kill the babies, but they prey on a woman at a most vulnerable time of her life.
For profit.
Coercion is NOT “choice.”
The process for aborting these late term babies is horrific. Those who participate in them must have got their start torturing kittens or pulling wings off flies as kids. They never got away from the thrill of seeing something helpless suffer death. Their greatest thrill must be the taking from a naive girl the joy of motherhood. It is their way of punishing these girls for indulging in that dirty nasty thing of having sex with a loathsome beastly man.
This is nothing for leftists. They want to send entire families to death camps.
